Building Complex Healthcare
Inova Franconia–Springfield Hospital | Alexandria, Virginia
The Inova Franconia–Springfield Hospital is a next‑generation healthcare campus supporting Inova’s One Hospital, Two Sites vision, working in close coordination with the new Inova Alexandria Hospital campus to function as a single, integrated health system serving Northern Virginia.
Project Details
Situated on a 17‑acre site, the project includes a six‑story, 565,000‑square‑foot inpatient hospital with 144 patient rooms, a 134,000‑square‑foot outpatient center, a central utility plant, and a 333,000 square foot/1,047 space parking garage with 321 spaces in the lower floor of the hospital. Large patient room bays and expansive public spaces inform innovative structural solutions, including post‑tensioned concrete slabs and multi‑story open volumes designed to support operational efficiency and an enhanced patient experience.
Deep collaboration between DPR, Inova, the design team and trade partners is central to delivering a bold architectural expression aligned with Inova’s commitment to clinical excellence and compassionate care. DPR leverages advanced virtual design and construction strategies—including BIM coordination, 4D modeling, and model‑based logistics planning—alongside rigorous virtual and physical mockups to support complex sequencing and high‑performance delivery. In parallel, the team partners with local workforce organizations to promote local hiring and create pathways into the trades, reinforcing a shared commitment to community impact.
